SAN JOSE — Housing towers, new dining spots and hundreds of residences for San Jose State University students are in the works as part of a wide-ranging plan to dramatically revamp the college’s downtown campus.
The campus master plan’s primary focus is to create plenty more places for students to live, according to university officials. Overall, the university is either completing or actively planning four major projects as part of the college’s transformation and modernization: The Interdisciplinary Science Building, which will be the university’s newest academic facility. Totaling 164,000 square feet, the building will focus on faculty-led student research and will contain teaching labs, research labs and collaborative spaces. The science building is slated to open in the fall of this year.
“The next planned addition to SJSU’s campus housing brings more Spartans to the core of San Jose’s vibrant urban community,” a post on the college’s site states. The post adds, “1,007 new student beds, a welcome center and a 900-person capacity dining hall will replace Washburn Hall, Joe West Hall and the older dining commons.”
